Hella Flush... so old. Check out Heavenly Tuck....

Remeber you saw it here first..... Heavenly Tuck. Hella Flush has been around FOREVER.... the latest fad in car cosmetics ('cause Hella Flush sure ain't for performance - it's all about the look right?) is Heavenly Tuck. The S130 was born to dominate out of the box.....

Now see you've got the Heavenly Tuck confused with the Hella flush - needs to go up another 8 inches....

Wow - it's so blatantly a poke (I'd tell you that was a pun but....) at the hella flush movement. You know - a joke. I was at the same time making fun of how horrible the stock fitment of the S130 is... I'm not sure if you know much about the S130 since none of your links had an S130 in them as your examples. For that reason I don't expect you to have noticed that the car has been dropped at least two inches from stock.

Personally I think epic camber is plain stupid. Where do you think all of this stuff originates from? Why do you think we like cars with agressive air dams, lowered to the ground with the wheel arches filled? If you haven't thought about it or haven't figured it out yet it's from purpouse built high performance racing cars. Performance was the original intention and from that people sought to emulate the look of performance vehicles. Like most things styles become exagerated and the orginal idea lost. Soooo..... if you have a car as a fashion statement, an extension of your wardrobe or just simply a ***** extension then yea F your car up. Epic camber is WAY worse than no camber performance wise. It wreaks your tires, screws up your geometry, abuses drive line components, etc. It's fine for making yourself feel good but it's just bad for your vehicle.

I like EVERYTHING about my cars. I like learning about how they work, learning how to fix stuff, planing, reading, looking and thinking. I find it mentally stimulating and satisfying accomplishing. Don't get me wrong I think fitment is crucial to how a car looks but never at the cost of performance. I've dropped my 280ZXs as much as I can with the stock suspension and I'm not willing to comprimise the performance of the car for better looks. When I get as far as modifying the rear cross member and adding bump steer spacers then I can go lower when I can have both the performance AND the looks.

Huh.

Whether you like a style or hate it, that's a pretty dick thing to say.
